Jo didn’t catch any sarcasm in Becca’s question. She turned to look squarely at Becca again. “It is actually. Or it looks like it probably is, based on what I’ve seen while driving through, all those couples and families strolling around. Everybody’s smiling. Relaxed. To be honest, I don’t know for sure, because I haven’t explored this or any of the other towns on this route. Thought it would be more special to explore a town like this with someone who I liked spending time with, you know?”
Every breath, every hour has come to this
From her tone, and careful way she spoke, Becca could see Jo was trying to tell her something that she probably hadn’t planned on revealing to Becca so early into what they’d agreed would be a long conversation.
Becca blew out a breath slowly, and held Jo’s look with a steady, hopeful, gaze. “You haven’t brought someone in that category up here? This whole time? Not one?”
One step closer
Jo swiped Becca’s hand and laid a soft kiss on her fingers. “None. You’d be the first.”
She gently laid Becca’s hand back down, refocused on the road, then picked up speed. They’d cleared the edge of the town, and the speed limits had edged up.
“We’re not far, and we can go faster now. With luck, we should be there in 20 minutes.”
I have died every day waiting for you; darling, don’t be afraid I have loved you for a thousand years; I’ll love you for a thousand more
After exiting the main road ten minutes later, and a few turns in neighborhood streets, they reached a fork in the road, but Becca didn’t notice any clear demarcations about where either road led to. She looked at the GPS on the touchscreen on the dashboard: the pink line that had been tracking their position on the roads wasn’t on a road anymore. What?
Snow was beginning to fall heavily again. Without hesitation, Jo took the left after pumping the brakes to slow down. There weren’t any streetlights to guide them, and it looked like that they’d entered a road full of switchbacks, which was a challenge in itself, plus the angle of the SUV led Becca to believe they were on a steep incline. “It’s a good thing you know these roads well, Jo,” Becca observed, somewhat nervously. She could hear their tires crunch the snow.

I am not familiar with these two characters – Becca and Jo. I went back and started at the beginning, so, these comments are for the two chapters.
Chapter 1 – Oh, my god. What a absolutely horrendous situation. Becca is so much in love with Jo and is ready to announce to her friends and family that she is in a relationship with a woman. Jo tries to convince her not to go through with her outing to her family, which does not work. On the way to the family gathering Jo ends the relationship with Becca for her own good. Needless to say Becca falls apart. The pain and anguish Becca feels is devastatingly clear to the reader. Becca even though she spends months under the care of her family and hours in therapy never reveals to her family and friends that her massive breakdown is the result of a lesbian relationship breakup. Becca continues to love Jo but continues to anguish over the sudden break up without knowing the reason why.
The story has a flash black to when the two characters meet and begin their romantic relationship. This is certainly an attraction at first sight which by all appearances develops into a deep love for both parties.
Chapter One ends when three years after the breakup, Becca is in New York City in time square when an electronic billboard catches her eye that features an androgynous model of male clothing – her ex girlfriend Jo.
Chapter Two – Three years after the abrupt termination of their relationship, Becca is talked into attending a charity event by her friends. At the event, across the room, she see her long lost love Jo. Jo sees her and works her way to Becca vicinity to say hello. The rest of the chapter tells what happens the rest of the evening. Much of the dialogue is in the mind of Becca. Becca and Jo find a secluded area where they can talk which does not go as well as either hopes. Jo takes an opportunity to serenade Becca an abbreviated explanation as to what happened three years ago. Jo gets an emergency alert on her property in upstate New York and needs to leave town at once. Jo agrees to take Becca with her for the weekend and the story goes on from there.
After getting to the “cabin”, its becomes obvious that Jo is still very much attracted to if not in love with Becca. The weekend adventures are very descriptive and preview what might be a very interesting weekend for Becca.
There is an indication that not just a reunion but a reconciliation may be in the works for these two.
I recommend this story and I encourage the author to add to this frequently as possible.
Hi Martha3128,
Happy you’ve “met” Becca and Jo, and that you’re into their story. Thank you for taking the time to post a recap, and thank you, also, for recommending it. I’ll try to post the next chapter as soon as I can. But, as you can see, each one runs quite long, between 9k to 10k words a chapter, even as I try to make each word count and flow smoothly.. Hope you’ll find the next one as enjoyable a read as the first two.
Take good care, in the meantime..
“Talk” to you soon!
